Currently, cyclists must make a one-kilometer detour and cross the busy avenue. The new infrastructure should therefore save them several minutes.
Major disturbances at night
After several long preparation stages, the actual bridge arrives. The installation has started and includes 15 sections. The work is mainly carried out at night, between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Depending on the progress of the construction site and the sections, various traffic difficulties are expected, with streets and connections closed.
The most impactful night already scheduled will undoubtedly be that of October 24 to 25: Avenue Léopold III will be closed in both directions between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., and the trams will be interrupted.
The end of the work is scheduled for spring 2024. In total, a budget of 11.7 million was necessary to finance the project. A sum invested by the Flemish Region via the Werkvennootschap.
